The Olofa in Council has denied lamenting
over the unfulfilled promises made by successive administration in the state to
enhance development in the ancient town.
The clarification followed media reports where the
Olofa in Council was quoted to have lamented over unfulfilled promises by the
past and the present government.
While it is a fact that the Olofa in Council
received the Hon. Minister for National Planning, Dr. Abubakar Olanrewaju
Suleiman, who paid a courtesy call on the 6th October, 2014, we would like to
state for the record that there was no time during the visit that the Olofa in
Council criticised the Kwara State Government.
To the contrary, it was the Hon. Minister for
National Planning, Dr. Abubakar Suleiman as widely reported in the media that
spoke on the deplorable state of Ajase--Ipo -Offa Road which is a designated
Federal Road.
As a traditional institution and a non-partisan
entity, the Olofa in Council will like to caution that the institution should
be insulated and not be dragged into partisan politics.
